As related to chemistry, 'dissolve' means to cause to pass into solution, e.g., dissolve salt in water. It also means to reduce solid matter to liquid form (melt).

Does purity effect dissolving rate and how?

Yes, the purity of a substance can affect its dissolving rate. Higher purity substances typically dissolve faster because there are fewer impurities or other substances present that might interfere with the dissolving process. Impurities can slow down the dissolving rate by creating barriers for the solvent to interact with the solute particles.


When the dissolving rate equals the rate at which molecules comes out of solution the solution is in?

When the dissolving rate equals the rate at which molecules come out of solution, the solution is in a state of dynamic equilibrium. This means that the amount of solute dissolving is equal to the amount of solute precipitating out of solution, resulting in a stable concentration of solute.
